Actually, I can see a "last kid to get picked for kickball" situation occurring. Oh the bad memories

and watch your 34 Cs jiggle like jello as you ran

Didn't we try out that pick up game technique a bit ago? It takes a while to set up manually...would be easier if there was a dedicated server that automatically chose captains and made choosing people just a matter of clicking on people.

hey guys, tbh the only reason I didn't join a team for the league was because I know I'd probably miss a fair few matches and didn't want to let a team down. I just wanna get in some good games with some good players, which is why i also quite like deathmatch. Observing snowsickle and trying to find a way to take him down has definately made me a better miranda player, and is totally satisfying when I manage to kill him. Plz to be increasing max number of players so my no-showing wouldn't be a problem and I can play a league game every now and then :P

If not, no worries, it's your league

Edit- oops, didn't notice the 2nd page

bukem, teams of 10 and only 5 needed per round so if you can make like 1/2 of the matches I think that may be okay.

Also I like the pickup idea, balanced teams >>

What can we do to encourage new players to contribute/engage the altitude gaming community? And, do we care?

Here's one idea I have: How about a server that is purely pick-up games, where two team captains take turns picking players for their teams. Then you play. Like in basketball, where the one player gets the first pick, the second gets too picks, then back and forth.

Servers fill up all the time, and instead of a computer making the teams, having players pick the teams themselves would boost camaraderie—and probably lead to less nooby-related outbursts/harassment.

Wow probably i would love that but we should make a special tourney of it just 10 ppl can subscribe they are the captains then you pick 3 ppl playing with you (so its 4v4) then u play the map chosen by capt 1 then you play a map chosen by capt 2 third map is the random map that comes next

You guys like that?

Players of all different calibers do seem to enjoy the team-captains game play. I just came from a good 5 vs 5, it seemed well controlled and surprisingly, self-governed.
